## Review summary

OTG View provides solid USB OTG camera support with an ad-free, privacy-friendly design and useful mirroring/rotation features. However, usability is hampered by device-specific UI issues and stability problems. Several Samsung models are reported to hide settings or make them hard to access, while many reviews note crashes, freezes, or failure to detect/display camera input. The core OTG functionality remains appealing, but broader device compatibility and reliability improvements are needed for smoother, universal use.

### Pros

- Ad-free experience with no ads.
- Works with USB OTG endoscope cameras.
- Useful imaging features like picture mirroring and rotation.
- No permission requests for user data.
- Generally unobtrusive and lightweight.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and freezes; app may not open reliably.
- Settings and controls are hidden or inaccessible on several Samsung devices.
- Not all devices/cameras are detected; may display a black screen or fail to show the image.
- Inconsistent camera detection on some models.
- Occasionally confusing instructions or unresponsive taps.
